Lucknow, Sep 13 (Ians) More than half of the sepsis patients that are admitted for treatment at King George’s Medical University (Kgmu) have been found to be antibiotic resistant.
According to experts, resistance is caused by overuse or misuse of antibiotics.
Head of the respiratory critical care department, Prof Ved Prakash explained that sepsis or septicaemia, or infection in the blood can lead to damage in multiple parts of the body.
Decreased blood pressure can result in multi-organ failure and even death. “What is concerning is that antibiotic resistance is found in sepsis cases,” he added.
Prof Ved Prakash said that out of over 2,000 ICU patients treated annually in their department, more than 1,000 have developed antibiotic resistance.
This resistance significantly increases their risk of contracting sepsis.
Highlighting the reason, he said, “People are indiscriminately using antibiotics for minor issues like colds and coughs, often without a doctor’s prescription. This...

ReviewThough actors including Santosh Sobhan and Malavika try their best to make the story engaging, the performances alone cannot compensate for the wafer-thin plotline.Director Nandini Reddy’s Anni Manchi Sakunamule starts off with a unique and promising sequence, telling the tale of two families and a conflict between them over a coffee estate. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take much time for the film to slip into a cliche trope that becomes the focal point of the story, causing you to lose all interest. The only motivation to watch the film from here on is curiosity — will Nandini be able to redeem the film with her own take on a story that has been done to death in the Telugu film industry? The film’s protagonist, Rishi (Santosh Sobhan), is free-spirited and believes in ‘living in the moment’, a luxury he can afford because of his rich father. His father,...

From a family of prominent lawyers, he was expected to follow in their footsteps, but instead chose a career in the fledgling Hindi film industry – and uncharacteristically, not as a hero. Virtually dragooned by his legendary boss taking over a lead role, despite the director’s opposition, he, in his first-ever take, muffed up a simple scene with the heroine, and then, left the villain with a fractured leg.
That, in 1936, was the rather farcical start of the career of Ashok Kumar, who was born on this day in 1911.
Undaunted, he went on to establish himself not only as Hindi cinema’s first superstar as the 1940s began, but also one who was known for his air of naturalness and his willingness to reinvent himself and experiment with playing morally ambiguous or anti-hero roles.

Photo: 'Miss India'/Netflix The fight for equality for women has come a long way, with the current third-wave feminist movement. Retractors of the fight are of the view that a large-scale effort is not warranted anymore; that women have every right that a man has in the present day. In reality, women are still held back on many levels, bogged down by each culture’s norms of the expectations from their gender identity. There are still cultures in the world where a woman starting her own business is considered a nonconformist concept. However, nothing beats a woman’s drive, ambition, and determination to prove her disparagers wrong. Miss India (2020) is an Indian drama film in the Telugu language, which is the regional language of the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The movie is written and directed by Narendra Nath and is his debut film effort. It...

ReviewPreachy, feel-good lines are dropped into the script at every turn, like Milk Bikis biscuits.Sowmya RajendranKeerthy Suresh's Miss India, now streaming on Netflix, is based on the frankly ludicrous premise that tea drinking is unheard of in America, and that it's Indian variant - chai - is completely alien to a cosmopolitan city like San Francisco which has a sizable Indian population. But even if you're willing to suspend disbelief and buy into the delusion, the story that director Narendra Nath, who has co-written the film with Tharun, wants to tell, is as appetising as a glass of tepid tea. Keerthy Suresh gets a stylish introduction, and before we can register her character's name - Manasa Samyuktha - she plunges into her life story for no particular reason. We're taken through Samyuktha's childhood where people speak like they're reading off inspirational quotes from a website. Rajendra Prasad plays Samyuktha's grandfather,...

Flix Flashback In #WatchWithTNM this week, we revisit the classic Telugu comedy in which Brahmanandam made his debut.Jahnavi ReddyYouTube/Suresh ProductionsOne of the many things that Jandhyala’s characters are adored for, is their highly specific and unique insults or ‘thitlu’. In Aha Naa-Pellanta!, it is Brahmanandam’s character who does most of the insulting, generously embellished with alliterations and absurd similes. Gaali vaanalo visenakarrelu ammevadi la moham chudu, for instance. (“You look like a man who sells hand fans during a storm.") But we mostly hear these insults through his inner voice, because Aragundu (half-shaven head), as he is called throughout the film, is essentially in bonded labour under his boss and legendary miser Lakshmipathi (Kota Srinivasa Rao). It has been 33 years since the major hit and classic film Aha Naa-Pellanta! released, and it is these two characters (Aragundu and Lakshmipathi) who dominate the popular memory of the film.

Thrillers, wacky comedies, multi-layered dramas, biopics and the minimalisation of hyperbole – the year had everything. Such was the quality of movies this year that high-profile biopics like Ntr Mahanayakudu, and thrillers like 118 didn’t make the cut.
